Dear all,
I need to locate the length polymorphism 5-HTTLPR in the promotor region of SERT (SLC6A4). However, I can not find the Build37/hg19 basepair position of this length polymorphism. I searched ensembl, ucsc and dbSNP, but they all give the location of all of SLC6A4. Supposedly, this is because “5-HTTLPR” is used as synonym for SLC6A4. Also using Google I could not find how to locate the length polymorphism 5-HTTLPR.
Vinkhuyzen et al (PMID: 21670732) do locate 5-HTTLPR at 25586631 in their supplementary materials, but this was in a previous Build. I tried to use the surrounding SNPs they give to locate 5-HTTLPR, but 6 of the nearest SNPs in Vinkhuyzen mark an area of 296-401 SNPs in 1000Genomes. So, this is no accurate way to locate 5-HTTLPR either.
My final question is short: how do I locate the length polymorphism 5-HTTLPR in Build37/hg19?
Many thanks in advance,
Wouter
